Top of the castle.
"Xiao Linke, hurry up, or this potential magical beast cub will die!"
Auf's tone was unusually anxious.
He wasn't concerned about the magic stones he had used up, nor was it because this monster's talent was rare.
For him who has reached the Star Level, apart from the possibility of breaking through to Legend, many other things are not important.
In addition to "many other things", Lin Ke is undoubtedly important to him.
Both teacher and father!
He hopes that his disciple Lin Meng will have a strong helper and partner!
"No, teacher, wait a minute!"
Lin Ke made a sound, then closed his eyes, frowning and trying to feel the bond and intimacy that suddenly appeared in the soul space just now.
It was an extremely thick but very weak soul fetter line.
This was brought about by the previous use of the master-servant contract.
"Little guy! Little guy!"
Lin Ke tried his best to call, but the aura at the other end of the soul bond line did not respond at all, and even became weaker and weaker.
Lin Ke looked along the soul bond line and saw a little bird curled up over there.
"Bird? Is it... a phoenix?!"
Lin Ke was shocked and called again: "Little guy! Wake up! If you don't wake up, you will die!"
Lin Ke did not choose to help it break out of its shell, because Lin Ke knew that the first pass of an oviparous animal was extremely important.
Only by overcoming the first challenge of life and death can we survive in the future of nature.
If the survival instinct cannot even pass the test of breaking out of the shell, then the animal may soon perish in nature.
It may seem like a broken shell, but it contains endless will.
Transcend! Break through! Inherit! Survive!
Therefore, Lin Ke hopes that this little bird can break through on his own, otherwise the future will be full of difficulties!
But why are there layers of chain-like things around the bird?!
chain?!
He said that after inputting a legendary magic power, it was still unsatisfactory. It turned out to be because of the shackles!
But the moment he saw those chains, Lin Ke suddenly understood the "meaning" of those chains in his mind.
These chains are not man-made, but natural.
This little bird's race needs to rely on its own strength to break through the shackles when it is born, otherwise it cannot exist in this world!
So……
"Little one! You have to survive!"
"Break through this darkness! There is light outside, have you seen it? There is sunshine outside!"
"You are a phoenix! A phoenix is ​​always unyielding and proud!"
"You will be reborn in fire! Instead of dying in darkness!"
"Little guy! Wake up!"
…
Lin Ke called out to the huddled bird in front of him with all his strength, feeling increasingly anxious in his heart.
If the little bird's life reaction just now was like a cluster of flames.
The current reaction of life is like a little spark in the firewood that has just been extinguished in the heavy snowfall in winter.
Even the shackles were tightening, as if they were strangling the little bird.
"Little guy, wake up!"
Lin was really anxious.
After traveling through time, he has always been very calm. Except for Flon, Off, John and Billy, he almost doesn't care about anyone else.
But now, the master-servant contract brought him a sense of intimacy, and he thought of the pets he had raised in his previous life.
Pets are just passers-by in people's lives, but people are everything in pets' lives.
He didn't want to see a life that could have been born in the world that was close to him die.
In other words, everyone feels compassion when they see the birth of life.
"Little one! You are the Phoenix! You are the Phoenix!"
"A phoenix will never die with its head down!"
Lin Ke only felt that the fiery red color of the bird in front of him was very much like the phoenix in Chinese legend, so he was even more unwilling to let it die.
Maybe... this is the only thing in this world that is similar to the previous world.
Lin Ke knew that it took him six years to get over the events of his previous life after he traveled here.
But now, the memory and intimacy are awakened by the phoenix in front of me.
"Little guy! I'm Lin Ke, can we get to know each other?"
Lin Ke was already a little panicked. The life breath of the little phoenix in front of him was getting weaker and weaker.
"Chiji..."
Suddenly, as if after hearing Lin Ke's self-introduction, the little phoenix's curled-up soul body opened a weak eye, and its bright black eyes looked at Lin Ke feebly and curiously.
There is a reaction!
Lin Ke suddenly became excited at the sight: "Little guy! Open your eyes quickly! Peck open the eggshell outside!"
"No! Use your beak! Use your claws! Use your wings... by all means!"
"You have to break through this barrier! You have to break this shackles!"
"Outside is the sun! Outside is the world!"
"You have to survive! You have to survive!"
"Beyond yourself..."
"You are the Phoenix!"
…
"Chiji..."
The little Phoenix actually started to twist its thin body after listening to Lin Ke's words.
The master-servant contract also brings about unimpeded communication between souls, so there is no need to worry about language barriers.
In the darkness, the little phoenix stretched out its tender and soft claws and kicked around hard.
It raised its head and squeezed, beat, and slid its featherless wings to push against the darkness in all directions.
However, in Lin Ke's perception, its aura was still weakening. It seemed that the surrounding eggshells were too hard and the shackles were too strong!
"Hey..."
In its soul, the little phoenix let out an unwilling and painful cry, and even Ao Fu and John outside heard some movement in the eggshell.
"Don't give up! Don't give up!"
Just when the little Phoenix revealed that he was tired and wanted to rest, Lin Ke shouted in the soul space:
"How could your life and your destiny be blocked by a mere eggshell! You are the Phoenix of China! The unyielding Phoenix!"
Chinese legends embody the unyielding will of the Chinese ancestors to fight against nature. This is something that Lin Ke has been proud of and passed down so far!
The phoenix is ​​also full of color in Chinese legends.
Lin Ke himself didn't know that he didn't want to see the little Phoenix die, perhaps because he didn't want to see the spirit contained in Chinese legends pass away in his heart.
To be continued...
